CSUN’s Statewide Academic Senators are elected by the faculty during our annual spring elections. (See Article II, Section 7 of the Faculty Bylaws.) Nominations for these positions may be made by the Senate Executive Committee, by a Senator at a regular Senate meeting, or by petition. All nominations must be received on or before the final due date for nominations based on the Faculty Senate calendar. Petitions for nominations must be received at least 7 days prior to the due date. (See Article II, Section 6.1 of the Faculty Bylaws.)

CSUN Statewide Academic Senators serve three-year terms. The senior-most CSUN Statewide Academic Senator also serves as a member of the Senate Executive Committee.
